Protection of Freedom of Associationand Collective BargainingWe believe that all people have the right to have their voices heard by raising their good faithconcerns, either openly or anonymously, without any negative consequence. To that end, werespect the right of all employees to choose, voluntarily and free from coercion, whether to bargain
collectively and seek representation by third parties, including trade unions, or to refrain fromdoing so. We also believe that employees should be fully and accurately informed when making
the important decision of whether to elect a third party to represent them. In any event, at
Bridgestone we are committed to creating a culture of openness and employee involvement in allof the locations in which we operate.
